048 Redemption (3)
What Huanyu was thinking at the moment was that since the father and son of the pillar under the mountain had been killed, then the group of thieves should also leave, and the two of them should leave here as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
"Old man, since you have something to do now, then we sisters don't want to bother too much, so let's leave first." Huanyu said, thinking that he could leave here without a trace, and then slowly descend the mountain.
However, before the old village chief could speak, the man who came up from the bottom of the mountain suddenly shouted, "You can't go." ”
It didn't matter what he shouted, the other villagers also gathered around, although they didn't know why they didn't let the two girls leave, but since their own people said they wouldn't let them go, they couldn't go.
"Zhang Da was stunned, why didn't you let these two girls leave? Now that the father and son of the pillar are dead, no one can take them to the county seat. The old village chief didn't know the reason, but he was also saddened by the death of Zhuzi's father and son, and after speaking, he shook his head and sighed, his face was blank.
Zhang Da was stunned and almost rushed to Huanyu's side, first listening to the old village chief's question, and then came over a little, "Old village chief, even if they don't know what the people in our village do, but now after listening to our conversation, most of them have guessed, if they let them go like this, in case they go to report to the official, then we can't live here." ”
"This," the old village chief actually thought of this, although they did some bandits, but it was the last three times, they just arrived on this mountain less than half a year, even if it is to open the mountain and farm, the old and young can not get a few acres of land, let alone feed these dozens of people, fortunately, there are pillars in this mountain and forest, they are familiar with the mountain road, and they are here people, with their help, the old and young can be regarded as having a place to live, but from this point of view, the old village chief is grateful to them, Now he heard that they were dead, but he was also sad, and what he was most worried about was how the people of this village would live, if there was no pillar father and son to open a tea shop at the foot of the mountain, they would never be able to do the things of the bandits.
"Then you can do it! It's just that we ask for money, but it doesn't hurt anyone, if you let the old man know that you treat these two girls slowly, the village won't be able to tolerate you. After the old village chief finished speaking, he left.
The few people who stayed behind pressed Huanyu and the two to an empty house.
Jin Xiu was so frightened that she didn't know what to do, her body was paralyzed, as if every step was walking towards the execution ground, Huanyu was better, seeing Jin Xiu like this, she helped her, and the two walked forward in the midst of everyone's pushing and shoving.
"Huanyu, are we going to die?" Jin Xiu said weakly.
Huanyu didn't want to die, she walked while checking the situation in this village, which was also taught to her by Su Yi, when encountering a crisis in a strange place, you must first figure out where you are, and then figure out what the crisis is to face, if it is about life, then you can't stay no matter what, escape in the shortest possible time, if it is not related to life safety, then you must find an opportunity, and then find a way to escape when you confirm your safety.
"Don't panic first, let's preserve our strength first, and then think of countermeasures." Huanyu said.
Jin Xiu also felt that Huanyu was a very reliable person at the moment, so he nodded and did everything according to what Huanyu said.
Huanyu and the others were placed in an empty room, although it was not as dilapidated and filthy as the firewood room, but it was not much better, there were no tables and chairs with missing legs and corners in the house, cracked and notched dishes, and the bedding on the bed that could not be seen in its original color, and the unpleasant smell mixed in the air, but the two of them could not be happy.
As for Xiao Hei, I don't know where to go at this moment, I'm afraid that my lord doesn't like this place.
"Huanyu, how are we going to get out?" Without that group of villagers around, Jin Xiu spoke with a little more confidence, although he was still in this dirty place, he was able to save his life after all.
Huanyu thought about what Su Yi had said before they left, if they really got into trouble, they had to learn to protect themselves first, and then they had to find another way, and now, it was time for them to find a way to leave.
"Jin Xiu, we can't wait here forever, although the old village chief seems to be very kind, but there are other people in this village who are beating our idea, we must find a way to escape."
Of course, Kim so also knew that he was going to escape, but how? Where to flee?
"In this way, let's follow their wishes first, just stay here honestly, don't cry or make trouble, and when we get rid of it for a while, they will definitely send a woman to follow us, and when the time comes, let's take a closer look at the situation in this village, as long as we figure it out, it won't be far from us escaping." Huanyu said confidently.
Just when Huanyu and the others were trying to find a way to escape, the opportunity came to the door by themselves.
By this time, it was already dark, but the village was in chaos, and outside the house was full of people's shouts and shouts, and more often the sound of shouts for help.
Huanyu walked to the door alertly, checked the situation outside through the crack in the door, and saw people running around in a hurry, even if they passed in front of their house, they didn't have time to pay attention, probably because they had long forgotten their existence.
For the two of them, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so Huanyu walked back to where she had been sitting in a few steps, shook the sleepy Jin Xiu awake, and put her finger between her lips to silence her.
"Jin Xiu, no matter what happens for a while, the two of us will ignore it and keep running to the outside of the village, as long as we follow the path they are going down the mountain, we will definitely be able to go down the mountain." Huanyu didn't give Jin Xiu so much time to figure out what was going on, she took Jin Xiu's hand and rushed out of the house, seeing that the people outside only knew how to run around, and no one cared about them at all, but they couldn't be too conspicuous, and they also followed the example of others and ran around the village.
Although it was a random run, but there was also a goal, just when the two of them were about to reach the outside of the village, they saw a group of soldiers re-enter the village, and when they saw people, they tied them up, and if anyone resisted, they would punch and kick them, but they did not draw their swords against each other.
"Huanyu, these people look like people from the government, they won't be here to save the two of us!" Jin Xiu's face was full of expectation, if these people really came to save them, then they wouldn't need to run for their lives like this.
However, Huanyu didn't think so, they were just two maids, even if the young lady was pitying herself, she didn't have the ability and right to mobilize so many soldiers, so she didn't show optimism about the arrival of these generals.
"I don't think they look like it, we don't know their real purpose, it's better to escape as soon as possible." Huanyu said, turning and walking into a house, which was in a mess, like a scene formed in the haste of a person fleeing for his life. Then the two of them walked to the back door, which was next to a mountain area, and beyond that was a cliff.
Jin Xiu held Huanyu's hand tightly, shook his head, and said with a sad face: "Don't Huanyu, there is a valley down here, and if you fall down, you will be crushed, let's go back and make it clear to those who are soldiers, just say that we are from Sufu and were caught up the mountain by them." ”
Now, the people of Su Mansion may have already arrived in Dancheng, and it is impossible for them to delay the trip for the sake of the two maids, and now there is no person from Su Mansion to testify, even if the official government is really coming, how to verify it is a problem. However, it is impossible for them to jump off this cliff.
"General, there seem to be two more people over there."
As a soldier shouted, a group of people who saw Qi Shushu appear in front of the two Huanyu.
Huan Yu's heart is not good, and when he has not yet figured out who these soldiers are, the situation of the two of them is not safer than in the village.
"Someone, arrest the two of them." A man who seemed to be an official commanded, and at this time, a small soldier came forward with a rope and wanted to tie up the two of them.
When Jin Xiu saw this posture, he was not afraid, straightened up, and said loudly: "Stop, we are the maids of the Su Mansion in the capital, we are not thieves, stop, don't tie me up." ”
Huanyu did not resist, but restrained herself, because in her opinion, these people only tied them up, but did not make any further movements, and only when they were brought to the real adults could they tell their identities.
When the two of them were taken to the place where the bandits were concentrated, they saw all the old and young men and women kneeling there, and to say that these soldiers were also humane, those old and weak, sick and disabled were not tied up, but only driven to this place.
"Palm lamp."
With a shout, the surroundings suddenly lit up, and even the most subtle expressions on everyone's faces could be seen clearly.
"Nine Princes, please sit here." I saw that a man wearing a brocade robe and a jade tree in the wind walked out, and then sat on the seat prepared by the soldiers.
When Jin Xiu heard the words Nine Princes, she couldn't help but raise her head, and her face immediately showed joy.
"Nine Princes, Nine Princes, help!"
Si Nong followed the sound and forgot to go over, but there were so many people kneeling here, he didn't know who was talking at all.
"Go see what's going on." He instructed the guards around him.
The guard walked up to Jin Xiu and asked, "You shouted just now?" ”
When Jin Xiu saw this guard, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and he didn't care if his face was filthy, and said with a bright smile: "This soldier brother, we are the maids of Su Mansion, today at noon, we were originally resting in the tea shop at the bottom of the mountain, but I didn't expect the tea shop owner to drug in the water, and the people of Su Mansion were stunned, and our sisters were getting out of the car for convenience, so they escaped this catastrophe, and they were going to go to the government to report the news, but who knows, they came to the thief's den by mistake, We are really the maids of Sufu, not thieves on this mountain! ”
